Virginia gun-grabbing legislation and Dem Party propaganda
following the pro-gun protests demonstrates more tyrannical measures are
forthcoming. Gun-grabbing and the examples of Dem Party lies during the
Impeachment fiasco appears to be the continuing Dem modus operandi to terminate
American Liberty and Freedom. To preserve the Republic vote the Founders’
Constitution. If Dem corruption prevails, YOU KNOW WHAT TO DO!
Justin Smith has some precise thoughts.

BLOG EDITOR: I’ve apparently
been placed in restricted Facebook Jail! The restriction was relegated after
criticizing Democrats for supporting abortion in one post and criticizing
Virginia Dems for gun-grabbing legislation and levying protestor restrictions.
Rather than capitulate to Facebook censorship by abandoning the platform, I
choose to post and share until the Leftist censors ban me completely.
Conservatives are a huge portion of Facebook. If more or all Conservatives are
banned, it will affect the Facebook advertising revenue paradigm. SO FIGHT

Gun Control: The Die Is Cast
Free Americans Don't Submit to Tyrannical Fiats
By Justin O. Smith

"One of the greatest delusions
in the world is the hope that the evils in this world are to be cured by
legislation." ~ Congressman Thomas Brackett Reed (1886)
Over the past five decades, the anti-American, anti-firearms
tyrants have been forcefully striving in both Congress and States' legislatures
to suppress and completely eradicate anyone's ability to exercise their right
to keep and bear arms and to self-defense under the Second Amendment of the
U.S. Constitution, and recently, in this month of January, the people of
Virginia experienced the consequences from giving Democrats full control over
all three branches of government. Their first order of business was to
pass a series of vindictive, retributive proposals out of committee that are
aimed at the normal population of the state, starting with firearms and the
law-abiding citizens who own them, and this gives us all a glimpse of what is
ahead for America, during a juncture in history that is our most dangerous time
for the Bill of Rights and individual liberty.
Lobby Day on January 20th has been
a tradition in Virginia for several years now, whereupon its citizens take up
issues and grievances with their lawmakers, and as such, it was only natural
that, upon hearing of the egregious new "gun control" proposals,
thousands of American patriots across Virginia and the entire country decided
to descend on the Capitol in Richmond to decry such illegitimate and illegal
actions, and the tyrannical process that tried to justify them.
Virginia State Senator Amanda
Chase openly carried a .38 caliber firearm in a
custom holster, on January 15th 2019, as she presented her pro-gun bills to a
Senate committee. She explained, "It's a
deterrent for over-exuberant folks" when she was questioned over openly
carrying a loaded firearm into the Senate committee meeting, as numerous other
legislators had been doing for years, as permitted under existing Virginia
law.
On January 16th, the Democratic Party majority in the Virginia state Senate passed
bills that required: universal background
checks; limited firearm purchases to one a month; gave illegitimate powers to
local governments to ban weapons; and imposed a permanent ban on carrying
firearms inside the Capitol and legislative building, essentially seeking to
eradicate current state law that permits it. They reciprocated as expected to Michael Bloomberg's Everytown for Gun Safety organization,
that had donated a total of $2.5 million specifically to see this gun control agenda
come to fruition.
They are even seeking to forbid the private transfer of
firearms, which also violates our right to own property and dispense of it as
we choose, under the 5th Amendment . Their attacks on the "gun show
loophole" is simply arbitrary and tyrannical nonsense. It is the
Democratic Party communists' precursor to firearm licensing and confiscation,
and when all the firearms are accounted for in a database somewhere, they can
readily be confiscated on the assigned day.
It's worth noting that any "law" that attacks the
weapon rather than the crime or the criminal is one that is illegitimate, since
it must automatically falsely assume that anyone carrying any weapon is doing
so for a malicious and criminal purpose. Likewise, permits, taxes and other
such restraints on firearms unfairly impede and infringe on the rights of poor
people in exercising this right. Designers of such "law" assume the
worse of people and deny that anyone might be just an innocent, good man going
armed for the lawful purpose of self-defense. Nowhere in the Constitution does
it say that a person can keep and bear arms if he meets certain standards
first; the Second Amendment carries absolutely no qualifiers.
Several previous statements from Democratic lawmakers had
indicated that this was the direction they would go, and in fact, they made no
secret of it during their campaigns. It was with this in mind that the Virginia Citizen's Defense League
organized a peaceful rally scheduled for January 20th and Lobby Day, with the
stated intentions of dissuading lawmakers from pursuing this illiberal,
gun-grabbing agenda. Also, this foreshadowing of tyranny to come prompted 100
of Virginia's counties to declare themselves "Second Amendment sanctuaries".
The people weren't quite fully antagonized until these bills
were actually passed and sent forth. And they were further antagonized, when
Governor Ralph Northam used a manufactured crisis to issue a
Declaration of Emergency -- Executive Order 49 -- and
an illegal and UnConstitutional temporary gun ban, that also included knives
and sticks from January 17th until 5:00 PM January 21st; and some within his
camp suggested the National Guard might be used to enforce it. Northam used the
highly timely and suspicious and questionable arrests of six "suspected
neo-Nazis" in the four days prior to the rally, including a Canadian army
reservist with supposed ties to "hate groups", which given Canada's
current leftist nature could only mean those standing for liberty.
Northam's "state of emergency" claim was
challenged by Gun Owners of America and the Virginia Civil Defense League,
through an emergency injunction filed against the governor. Lobby Day has been
attended for years by the very same people Governor Ralph Northam tried to
paint as "radical, right wing extremists" and "violent white
supremacists" with the help of the Leftist media in America, such as MSNBC
and CNN and ABC "news" networks. And, it is at this point one must
certainly wonder what actual good comes from lobbying, when your so-called
"representatives", the Court and the governor are traitors to the
Constitution and the people of Virginia and America, all too ready and willing
to impose their lawless tyranny.
As noted before the Virginia State Supreme Court, which
later upheld the ban, in 2012, the General Assembly specifically forbade the
Governor by law from using a declaration of emergency to ban firearms.
Whatever Northam hoped to accomplish, his actions only
ensured that thousands of good, decent and fine American Patriots from all
across America would arrive, openly displaying military-style semiautomatic
rifles and "Guns Save Lives" stickers, chanting "USA" as
they waved "Come and Take It" banners and sang our National Anthem.
And by 10:30 AM on the morning of the 20th, fifty-five hundred were already
inside the "Cage" erected around the Capitol by authorities. By the
middle of the day, almost 60,000 total were in the Capitol area protesting
[police estimates place the number closer to 30,000], and they were peacefully
demanding these Democratic Party anti-Second Amendment proposals and
"laws" be stopped from going any further.
As reported by the NYTs, Teri Horne, of Quitman, Texas,
arrived with about three dozen women from the Open Carry Texas organization.
They drove twenty-four hours 'to support the people in Virginia', as they stood
armed on the sidewalk across from the entrance to the Capitol grounds. Ms.
Horne was armed with a Smith and Wesson M&P 15T rifle, toting a Texas flag,
too.
Another pro-gun protester, Logan Smith, of Indianapolis,
said: "It matters to me back home. Seeing stuff like this (gun control
legislation) being pushed, it doesn't sit well."
Sheriff Scott Jenkins of Culpeper County, Virginia, an
outspoken longtime gun rights advocate, spoke to the gathered crowd and offered
the following: "I ask you all to return to your homes and ask your elected
officials, where is the line they will not cross?"
Not one violence related arrest occurred during the entire
day, and the protest did not grow heated, despite
Gov. Northam's and law enforcement's warnings of out-of-state "hate
groups", militias and angry, violent neo-Nazis descending on Virginia,
repeated frequently and loudly by the media. There was one arrest that resulted
from a young lady's refusal to remove the bandana from her face, violating
Virginia's laws against masking one's face.
It's a curious matter to hear Northam decry violence, when
he and his supporters and staff have spent decades doing violence against
Christianity, decency and common sense, investing their life's work to
destroying and dismantling America, as they consistently attempt to intimidate
conservative Americans. Let's not forget, Gov. Northam is the same man who
publicly advocated murdering "unwanted" babies even after they had
been placed alive on the delivery room table; he and his party are lovers of
death, master manipulators and propagandists accustomed to getting their way.
Even more curious and insidious, from approximately 5:54 PM
January 16th through the 20th, a U-28A , a manned, airborne intelligence,
surveillance and reconnaissance, single engine, modified Pilatus PC-12
aircraft, under the Air Force Special Operations Command, was spotted circling the Virginia Capitol.
It was tracked to Camp Peary, near Williamsburg, Virginia, that plays host to
the CIA's covert training operations at "The Farm" and the Defense
Intelligence Agency's Defense Clandestine Service.
Although James Madison and Thomas Jefferson were discussing
the federal government in the Kentucky and Virginia Resolutions, they wrote,
these resolutions' words can equally apply to the states. They state: "Resolved, That the
several States composing the United States of America, are not united on the
principle of unlimited submission to their General Government ... and
whensoever the General Government assumes undelegated powers, its acts are
unauthoritative, void and of no force."
Just as three thousand WWII Veterans used their Second Amendment
right, to stop a corrupt Sheriff and 200 deputies
from stealing an election in Athens, TN in 1946 and Monroe, North Carolina's Black Guard used firearms to defend
themselves from a violent, murderous Ku Klux Klan chapter in the 1960s,
each and every single U.S. citizen has the absolute right to defend themselves
against any criminal attack and any act of tyranny by any government entity, be
it federal or state. Similarly one can exercise this right of self-defense to
repel any group that advocates and uses violence in attempts to forcefully
subjugate others, in the manner that today's New Black Panthers advocate for
the murder of white people at every opportunity and Antifa Communists call for
killing and/or "re-educating" conservatives, Republicans and Trump
supporters, by use of force. This Second Amendment right -- this God-Given
Right -- cannot be abrogated or eradicated by any majority's man-made
"law" designed to end one's liberty.
Several other states have either already passed extreme anti-firearm
legislation, similar to Colorado, or they are moving to do so, like Georgia,
Florida, New Hampshire, New Mexico, Hawaii and several others. One should also
note that approximately 110 "gun laws" have been proposed in Congress
already this year.
So no one should be resting easy, simply because this rally
went off without any major confrontation. Governor Ralph Northam and his
Democratic Party communist cronies listened and they are unimpressed and moving
ahead with the gun bills, business as usual, as though nothing has happened.
Anyone who still thinks the normal rules of governance are in play is denying
the new reality, that the Democrats of today are beyond reason, and Northam and
his leftist cabal, the chattering globalists of Virginia, are not to be trusted
or respected, and they will remain unmoved by any pleas to guard Constitutional
norms, the Bill of Rights, individual rights.
America has entered a post-Constitution era, or so it seems,
whereby a new template is forming for fascist state governments in any of the
fifty states to suppress our individual liberty and completely control their
people, since freedom and liberty mean nothing to
these new Democratic Party communists and statists, who act like rulers rather
than representatives of the people. This is the most important issue in the
nation, as America witnesses Machiavellian politics and actions, that have
taken the situation in our country beyond the pale, the most dangerous times of
our history, whereby our system fails us and tyranny is taking the day. And
with no relief found in a failed system, by way of representatives, courts, and
even elections, we are left alone to our own devices and days that demand the
Tree of Liberty be Watered with the Blood of Tyrants, as we are unwilling to
submit to illegitimate, illegal and tyrannical fiats.

The Second Amendment's primary function is to serve as an
affirmation of the people's right to fight off any tyrannical government or
force, both foreign and domestic, and the Framers of the Constitution wrote it
in a direct response to the tyranny the early Americans had experienced at the
hands of the British, not as a hunting license. In Federalist Paper No. 46, James
Madison wrote that the Constitution preserves "the advantage of being
armed, which the Americans possess over the people of almost every nation ...
[where] the governments are afraid to trust the people with arms." And
Thomas Jefferson concluded: "What country can preserve its liberties if
its rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the
spirit of resistance? Let them take arms."
The die is cast in Virginia and across America, and this
rising trend towards government overreach, violating the Bill of Rights and
tyranny will not stop, until the American people place some well-deserved fear
in the hearts and minds of these anti-American legislators, all across the
country, bringing them to the full realization that they do not rule over the
people. If that ultimately means bloodshed, so be it.
The right to keep and bear arms is imperative to the
God-given Right of every man, woman and child to be free of the evil tyrants
who walk the halls of government.
The law violated and ignored, moral persuasion constantly
falling on deaf ears, and freedom and liberty at stake. The only thing left is
the bullet.
